License to marry

It's sad that the horrific Robin William's flick 'License to Wed' took the umph out of my title, forcing me to use the less snappy alternative - but I digress...

There's no mystery to it in Pennsylvania - you need photo ID and $40 (and the consent of your partner) and you're eligible for your marriage license.

There are no required medical tests and you can apply in any county. There is a three day waiting period from time of application, but that can be waived (if you're like us and procrastinate...). You don't even need to be a resident of Pennsylvania to get a marriage license. The license is valid for 60 days. (Source. About.com)

We probably will go up to our local courthouse and get the paperwork taken care of in the next week - although my fiance, King Procrastinator is getting all of the information on it, so it could be the week after.

Although, I am choosing not to do it; WikiHow has some tips on how to change your name after you receive your marriage certificate: http://www.wikihow.com/Change-Your-Last-Name
